MBB: Duke vs Miami (Sat, 1/21, 8:15pm ET, ESPN) Pre-Game and In-Game Thread

Announcers said he's healthy enough to play. But why change up a lineup that has clawed back to take the lead?

Oh, I missed that. Just noticed it's his non-shooting hand. I wasn't saying he should be in. I was wondering if he was injured or benched.

Don't mess with DeSoto Texas!

This is the Duke team we wanted to see all year. Let's hope the enthusiasm is contagious!

[Kjeffrey]

You have to start five guys.

And it seems to be working.

Due in large part to Jones and Bolden. I asked the question because it seems that some players are given more leeway than others. Perhaps not but it looks that way to me.

Kennard leads the team in minutes. I don't think he has suffered from not getting enough leeway.

Nothing like a good you ain't got it to get them going.

Man Matt Jones is killing it. Good to see him get out his funk

[FerryFor50]

Bilas thinks Kennard fouled Miami on a box out, but didn't get fouled when he took a shoulder to the jaw on a post up. Got it.

Maybe Luke should have just flopped like I see every other post defender do when they get hit.

Rest, and the tilde would adapt.

Best Capel move yet - 2nd half starters.

[BigZ]

Boldan maybe the key to this team bc when he is in the game it is the only time guys aren't playing out of position

[MartyClark]

Best Capel move yet - 2nd half starters.

Yeah, crazy good move. I initially disagreed with this but Coach Capel knew made the right move.

[FerryFor50]

The body language of this team is SO much better. They actually look like they're having fun and like each other.

Lip reading of Larrannaga:

"Can you believe this s**t?"

[MartyClark]

Crazy game. Great 2nd half.

Someone mentioned that in chat but I thought they meant a player. Yikes! Good thing his mic wasn't on for that.

[CDu]

33-7 in the first 13 minutes of the second half. Against a top-50 team. This is anazing.

[Skydog]

Capel went from lost, helpless sheep failing his audition to genius in-game coach all w/i a few minutes. Amazing turnaround.

[BigZ]

Nola's has mentioned Luke being a high school quarterback four separate times. I think he has lost his mind

Im sure K has whispered much worse on the bench before not a big deal, Larranaga is a great coach and runs a good program.
